Save the Manatee

The Save the Manatee 5K is an annual running and walking event aimed at raising awareness and funds for manatee conservation. This year marks the first time the event will be held in Florida, specifically at Blue Spring State Park, a crucial winter refuge for manatees. Participants can join in person or opt for a virtual experience, allowing them to engage in any activity from anywhere in the world.

The event not only promotes physical activity but also fosters a deeper connection to the cause, coinciding with the start of Manatee Season and Manatee Awareness Month. Visit the organization's website for the most recent information.
